We are planning to convert all our projects into Silverlight Technology. After doing some research work we came to know that there are some Plug-In Isssues related with Silverlight. Will it be a good idea to convert project in still developing Technology like Silverlight. Can anyone pointout some Advantages and Disadvantages of Silverlight.
Thanks.
First of all I believe that most technologies are more or less under development. Silverlight have become a modern and mature technology that are superior to many other webbased technologies.
Silverlight requires a plugin in the browser to run. The penetration of the plugin is about 75% worldwide - depending on your kind of application this will not be an issue for you. Earlier this year I wrote a post about this particular issue (https://thomasmartinsen.com/2011/01/23/the-silverlight-penetration-is-no-longer-an-issue/).
I will recommend you read about Silverlight on http://silverlight.net or take a look at this discussion here on stackoverflow: Silverlight, Wpf Web App (xbap) or Click Once? Pros and Cons
